That is why we directed resources to the Department of Justice. with special attention to implementing the Violence Against Women Act. Mr. President. the American people did not want us to adjourn for the year without tackling the problem of illegal immigration. This bill is our tough answer to that demand. It tightens border enforcement by doubling the border patrol and authorizing a triple fence barrier along our southern border. It cracks down on alien smuggling. It will speed up the exclusion and deportation of illegal aliens. and it funds 2.700 detention cells. By the way. thats 2.000 more than the President wanted. This bill includes our entire Defense appropriation. the foundation of our national security effort.
